Summary

Listen, if you’ve ever wanted to listen to some of the funniest comics Britain has to offer make off-colour jokes and do maths, this is the show for you. Jimmy Carr is simultaneously one of my favourite hosts and utterly awful. Everyone else is delightful all the time — I don’t think I ever encountered a guest I didn’t like.

This has solid Celebrity Jeopardy vibes honestly. I can imagine Susie talking about Anal Bum Cover very easily.
